Cub Scouts Bicycling Sports Belt Loop and Pin

Tiger Cubs, Cub Scouts, and Webelos Scouts may complete requirements in a family, den, pack, school, or community environment. Tiger Cubs must work with their parents or adult partners. Parents and partners do not earn loops or pins.

Requirements for the Bicycling Belt Loop

Complete these three requirements:

Explain the rules of safe bicycling to your den leader or adult partner.

Demonstrate how to wear the proper safety equipment for bicycling.

Show how to ride a bike safely. Ride for at least half an hour with an adult partner, family, or den.

Requirements for the Bicycling Pin

Earn the Bicycling belt loop, and complete requirement 1 below, and do four additional requirements:

Make a chart to record at least 10 hours of bicycling. (Required)

Participate in a pack, den, or community bike rodeo.

Demonstrate how to repair a flat tire on a bicycle.

Make a poster illustrating different types of early bikes and show it to your den.

Give a demonstration to your den or pack on the proper use of safety equipment and gear.

With the help of a parent or adult partner, register or reregister your bicycle.

Go on a "bicycle hike" with your family or den. Obey traffic rules related to bicycling.

Repair or restore a nonfunctioning bicycle to a safe condition. Include the installation of all proper safety devices.

My scout likes to rides bikes; this would be a great Belt Loop for him to earn. He also is learning motocross. Would there be a separate Belt Loop for that? Thanks.

@Kelly That is really cool that your son is getting into motocross. Unfortunately, almost everything with a motor is not a part of scouting or restricted. So he can get the bicycling belt loop and pin but there is nothing currently in scouting for motorcycles.
Best of luck to you and your son.
